Day-Light Classic Plus
Carex
$170
Large 10,000-lux (at 12 inches) bright light therapy box with a 16 by 13 inch UV-blocked light surface, 4000K color temperature, 192 LED bulbs, and an adjustable-height, angle-tilting stand for a wide treatment field.
Pros
- Large, angled light surface delivers 10,000 lux over a wider area
- More forgiving usable distance than most compact lamps
- Closely resembles the light boxes used in seasonal-depression research
- UV-filtered high-intensity visible light for mood and circadian timing
Cons
- Large, utilitarian box that takes up real desk or floor space
- Bright visible light only, with no UV or whole-body spectrum
- Needs a stand or surface positioned correctly to work as intended
Best For
- You want the light box that most closely matches the ones used in seasonal-depression research.
- You would rather sit at a comfortable distance than hunch close to a small panel.
- You have the desk or floor space for a large angled fixture and care more about dose than looks.
Skip If
- You want something that looks like a desk accessory; this is a large, utilitarian box that takes real space.
- You're after vitamin D or whole-body light; the UV is filtered out and the deep-red R9 runs low.
- You have nowhere to position and angle it correctly, which the design depends on.
